Trump campaign said video using Nazi-era language was posted by staffer who didn’t see wording, yet it stayed up for 15 hours
Everyone knows Trump makes all his posts himself and not staffers. He’s a true fascist.
Technically he works for his own campaign, and you know he never reads anything, including his own speeches.
I hate the guy with every fiber of my being, but this story has been probably the only one where I absolutely don’t care mainly because I know his base and I know how lazy and unprofessional his staff is. I’m like 90% sure this actually wasn’t intentional and they were too lazy to analyze the whole thing.
It IS troubling that all the Nazis that would make this content really like Trump…
There are local election candidates who have manages tonnecer post Nazi propaganda despite less staff and less financial backing. At a certain point it’s not just incompetence. Its willful. That point was passed during his term, not recently.
Its just a shame that so many can be willfully ignorant or brush it off as you are. It should be consequential. Its like social media companies saying they don’t have the funds to properly moderate with staff. Yet newspapers managed for generations. They seem to always have enough staff to take advertising money.
In this case its not turning a blind eye. Its magnifying damaging voices.
lazy and unprofessional
This is a key aspect of Trumpism: it’s all about the grift and that means the shortest path to money.
I don’t think the problem is having published it. I think the problem is having had those words pronounced and recorded.
It’s one thing being a racist fascist. It’s another having the gal to admit it in private. It’s a whole other plate to admit it in front of a camera.
The point is that they didn’t, it was a video made by some anonymous internet asshole that they republished uncritically. It’s a very uninteresting story.
The words were in the text of a (real) headline shown in the video.
Its okay if you didnt read the article, most people dont bother to. But maybe don’t jump into the discussion pretending like you did…
What analysis is there to be done here? How often do you hear people actually say Reich.
I’m like 90% sure this actually wasn’t intentional and they were too lazy to analyze the whole thing.
Just like the $88 baseball.
Or the 1488 children lost.
Or the 14 word immigration statement.
Just one more in a long line of accidental nazi dog whistles.
The first two I agree thats very sus, but the last one i am a bit lost. And i know the dog whistles, just don’t know what you’re point out exactly.

12 Reasons Why This Dooms Biden
-- Breaking News, NYTIt’s not just the NYT, it’s the AP, which I don’t get because they’re supposed to be many journalists, CNN, CBS, ABC, Reuters sometimes, The Guardian and Politico. I check them every weekday which makes it really obvious.
Damn if you do, damn if you don’t?
Should the video had not been removed? I don’t know what the issue is? They removed a video that comes off as offensive, right? Isn’t that good moderating?
The issue is that they actually said that. There should never have been a video in the first place.
He said the quiet part loud.
Of course it should be removed. I don’t think anyone sane is criticizing him for removing it. The criticism is still that it was ever posted in the first place. The excuse here is pretty weak. You need to be posting the kind of videos that would include such things in order to accidentally miss them.
Makes sense.
jaysus christ bro, i hope this was sarcasm
It wasn’t… this thread has speculations of what really happened. All we know is that a user of Truth Social posted a video, it was reviewed - apparently not thoroughly watched, then it was allowed to be posted by an employee of Truth Social. Then after discovering the icky word, the posted video was removed.
What if said user was actually anti-Trump and tried to damage the image of Trump and his voters? Not hard to believe. Or it could have been a straight up neo-nazi who thinks Trump is the messiah… Also not hard to believe.
In the end it seems people got sand in between their legs and became hysterical.
Adolf, Benito, Francisco, Hideki, and I’ll throw in Mao and Joseph would be proud of the orange lunatic. It blows my mind there are plenty of American voters who support this kind of shit. Vote Blue to prevent the “brown swamp” from entering the White House.
